yes finally it's gonna end. praying for monday to come.
however my main purpose to blog now wasn't due to this nor exams.
it was a japanese drama tht touches my heart deeply.

my opinion/review(until episode4)
it was seriously a nice japanese drama.
it was One Litre of Tears
i think who ever watches it will definitely cry esp it is based on a true story of a girl name Ikeuchi Aya
the cast of the show was pretty good. doctor/ main actress/ actor were woohoo!
=D

summary(until episode4)
This girl, Ikeuchi Aya, 15, was suffering from this incurable disease, spinocerebellar degeneration - a terrible disease where the cerebellum of the brain gradually deteriorates to the point where the victim cannot walk, speak, write, or eat. A cruel disease, as it does not affect the mind in the least. Initially the parents couldn't accept the fact but, still, they have to face the reality. Though Aya was sad of why is she the one suffering from such a disease, she did not gave up and resign to fate. Considering the fact that she is a basketball player, she was sad.

opinion from the tv station
15-year-old Ikeuchi Aya was an ordinary girl, the daughter of a family who works at a tofu shop, and a soon-to-be high schooler.
However, odd things have been happening to Aya lately.
She has been falling down often and walks strange.
Her mother, Shioka, takes Aya to see the doctor, and he informs Shioka that Aya has spinocerebellar degeneration (refer to above if you stil dunno wat's this.)
A cruel disease, as it does not affect the mind in the least.
How will Aya react when told about her disease?
And how will Aya live from now on?

This beautifully moving drama is based on the real-life struggles of a 15-year-old girl named Aya who suffered from an incurable disease, but lived life to the fullest until her death at 25.
The script is based on the diary Aya kept writing until she could no longer hold a pen.
The book that later followed entitled “One Litre of Tears" has sold over 1.1 million copies in Japan alone.Aya's only wish was “to live."

By carefully depicting Aya's earnest desire to live, and the love of her family,
friends, and lover, the drama, “One Litre of Tears" wishes to deliver her simple
but strong message: “Just being alive is such a lovely and wonderful thing."
